Listen. Kaiser was not very academically inclined. He was not one of those students that was likely to come up with an awe-inspiring response to a simple question. He was barely likely to come up with a simple response to a simple question, for that matter, but he would still have a go.

For a moment, he simply sat there, frowning in concentration as he mentally translated Professor Sissay's words, or at least as much as he could. 'On what parameters do these calculations depend?' Did that mean... what were the calculations based on? Or did it mean something else? Well, only one way to find out. Kaiser raised his hand.

"My name is Kaiser," he said when it was his turn to speak, forgetting to specify that that was his surname, as he rarely actually needed to do so in casual conversation. "The calculations in Arithmancy usually depend on names and birth dates." There. Simple answer. The less information he gave, the less likely he would say something incorrect. He was fairly sure what he had said was right, it was now just a matter of whether it had answered the question that had been asked.
